Question

The school decided to raise the price lunches by $0.25. Seth buys the school lunch 5 days a week. Write a formula that will help seth determine how much he'll now spend on lunch every week.

p= old price of school lunch
t= total seth pays for lunch each week

Answer 1

t = 5(p+.25)

Explanation:

Since his old equation would be t = 5p, .25 would have to be added every day in order to be the new price.
